Why this is a Masterpiece

Duck-shaped potteries were frequently selected as one of the burial gifts. Ducks were considered to have all three capabilities necessary to move onto the next world. They are capable of walking, swiming, and flying. Moreover, ancient people of prehistoric eras thought that birds take the soul of a dead person to the next world. There is a theory that this object is actually describing a phoenix because it has a cockscomb on its head.
